A magnificent, easy walk suitable for young walkers. Magnificent views and an area where you are likely to encounter mouflons and chamois! The passage through the Goulet d'Hurtières is pleasant and less frequented than the other paths leading to the Grande Sure.

A magnificent loop starting from the Chalet de la Charmette, via the Col de la Grande Vache and Col de la Petite Vache. An aerial walk with breathtaking views.

In summer, there is a very easy walk with magnificent views of the Grande Chartreuse, Mont Blanc and many other peaks. Dogs are not allowed at Charmant Som, even on a leash, from 10 June to 15 October.

A very pleasant hike, described here snowshoe users, but also good for walks on sunny days.

The highest point of the Chartreuse massif. As a bonus, there is a cable to access the summit platform. Magnificent panorama of the Chartreuse, with views of Mont Blanc, Mont Aiguille and the Vercors.

In the heart of the Chartreuse mountains, the Col de Porte is a former family ski resort whose ski lifts are now closed. The paths are more or less well marked allowing you to enjoy the trails on cross-country skis or snowshoes. The proposed circuit climbs through forest, coming out on a crest and offers superb views over the entire Chartreuse mountain range.

Easy walk on this “tooth” overlooking the Isère valley and offering an interesting view over the east foothills of Chartreuse.

This trail is an invitation to walk through medieval, rural and geological history and enjoy the natural beauty of an Isère valley deeply rooted between the alluvial plain and the cliffs of the Vercors. A great getaway for the curious, families, hikers and heritage enthusiasts!

Mount Rachais, from the hamlet of Frette, situated on its far northern side.

A magnificent hike that combines a natural section starting with a climb through the forest, continuing over the pleasant Pas de La Suiffière and then the easy but aerial ascent of the south ridge of the Grand Som, with a cultural section exploring the Monastère de la Grande Chartreuse, a veritable work of architectural art.

Easy access to Mont Rachais. View over Chartreuse, Belledonne, Grenoble and the Vercors.

A short hike to enjoy this geological feature: a flaming fountain.

A pleasant hike above Grenoble, fairly short but with superb views.

Short family-friendly walk with a magnificent view, manageable on foot or on snowshoes.

This walk offers a multitude of additional routes to vary according to your mood! This one is designed to satisfy the most curious: visit the Glacière, Pas de la Clé and Becs de l'Orient, with superb panoramic views over the entire Isère valley. A flower-filled, refreshing walk with panoramic views.

A wild hike starting from the Gève plateau in the magnificent Vercors forest. The route along the northern ridge of the Vercors offers breathtaking views of the Isère valley, the Grenoble conurbation, the Voiron area and the Chartreuse mountains.

A short family walk offering excellent views for the effort. Best done on a day with good visibility. Please note: a hiker has informed us that in summer, at weekends, access to the plateau is restricted: you must take a shuttle bus (or a chairlift, which is quite far away).

Petit Som and Grand Som from Gîte à Rucher de la Ruchère.

This is definitely the easiest and shortest way to climb the Grand Som. Caution for those prone to vertigo: between (2) and (3), the walk becomes a climb in places. The passages are often narrow and can be daunting.

A day's walk, quite lovely and varied. You start by going through the Grand Platon Forest, then going along the south-east bank of the lake with beautiful views over the lake. You change banks and go along the Feydelière and Véronnière marshes ('Marais' - protected sites). The return is via the north-west bank of the lake with beautiful views over Chartreuse and, if the weather is clear, Mont Blanc.

A diverse hike: forests, ridges, vast panoramic views...

A remarkable walk in the Écouges forest, classified as a protected sensitive area. This walk is very family-friendly and suitable for children in pushchairs. However,be careful at the viewpoint as the walk is high up.
